POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
"Poetry is thoughts that breathe, and words that burn."
In Bloom
We keep a glass table filled with pills and
The shadows of ten candles dance in doom.
I caress her skin and she gets the chills.
What we have will never leave this room.
We pass a bottle and sip and spill as
Music and moans set the mood.
We add an inch to every line for a thrill and
She cracks the windows to see the moon.
We mix drugs and call it a skill.
Then watch as the black roses bloom.
She says she likes the way it feels but
There is no escape from the burnt spoon.
Her skin begins to turn to silk as

Rolling Stone
My connect is about to re-up.
Too much is never enough.
One cig fallows the next and
My life is a consistent mess.
My ambitions are few but grand.
Blow is the best friend I have.
Bottles of wine keep me company and
Broken women tend to love me.
I test death to taste it.
Wicked games are my favorite.
I dance with the devil and
My soul slows down to savor it.
This is the path I chose. ...

Run
She called it love.
The needle pierced my skin and
I saw blood.
She said it would be fun.
I wanted to pack my bags and
Run.
All I wanted was someone.
But, she wouldn't stop until
We were both dead and gone.
She sung a sad song.
I found myself lost in a
World I didn't belong.
Everything was wrong.
So, I walked away and
Told her, "I'm done".

Shameless
I give her a bump and .
Soon, she is mine.
She dims the lights and
Tries not to look into my eyes.
I feel no shame—
Not tonight.
She starts to strip as
I chop up a few lines.
The exchange is understood.
She craves the drugs and
I’m addicted to her beauty.
My nose starts to bleed and
My body begins to feel weak.
We take drugs to stay numb and
Our ability to feel is soon lost. ...

It feels so wrong.
Then, it feels perfect.
My mind is split.
I can't tell the difference.
My bed the snake pit--
Her head is worth it.
Those eyes are toxic.
I can't shake the feeling.
I can't take the pleading.
The sex is the reason.
I may never leave my room--
Not so long as she stays.
This may spell out doom.
She is not the type to date.
Lies lying all around us--
Lust is all it is with us. ...

Nobody Town
I'm stuck in the city.
This girl is too easy.
Another bottle is empty
And I'm feeling dizzy.
Day is a distant memory.
I tend to slip and spill
On pharmaceutical hills.
Three grams and ten pills--
I'm covered with the chills.
I do it for the thrill.
I don 't want to come down.
I can't let go of the...

Hello
See me through the smoke.
Let me listen and laugh.
If we get a moment to say hello,
I won’t miss it or loose track.
Just don't let me spend the night alone.
My mind is fixed and I won’t crack.

Moonlight Mood
Candle lit vibes set
my moonlight mood.
I see impulsive dark skies and
visions of the burnt spoon.
I know she wants to fight and
I'm already being fooled.
If I can't find my pipe,
I'll be pissed off soon.
It wasn't love at first sight and
she can't know the truth.
Its impossible to cry
because I'm never moved.
I can't handle tonight,
so I...
